Abstract
The author feels that the Crayola? website, which has hundreds of lessons plans for all age groups, can be used almost exclusively as a source of lesson plans, ranging from science to pop art to multicultural and classical art styles. The paper describes the "Abstract Animals" lesson, very fitting for third graders, which teaches kids how to use simple shapes and colors to draw animals and other objects after the style of more modern representational artists. The author uses this lesson plan within a comprehensive interdisciplinary art curriculum that teaches about the relevance of art within its social and historical setting.
From the Paper
"The third section is called ?Directions,? and for a change is precisely what it claims to be. The directions for this lesson are, in short, to show the children images of various animals and forms and to use tracing paper to draw simple geometric shapes over the forms. (For example, an elephant?s head would be a circle with two large ovals for the ears and a long thin oval for the trunk.) Subsequently these designs are redrawn with marker on construction paper and colored in with chalk."

From the Paper
"David Hockney has had one of the most unusual careers of any artist of this century. Born in England in 1937, by the time he left London's Royal College of Art Hockney already had a national reputation as a painter. Since that time he has consistently been one of the most financially and critically successful artists in the world as well as one of the most popular (Livingstone 9). Hockney's works are known and recognized by a far broader audience than most artists enjoy. His is the kind of success that perfectly blends popular and critical acclaim. Thus, the prestigious Tate Gallery of London consistently reports that Hockney's well-known double portrait Mr. and Mrs. Clark and Percy (1970-71) is the museum's most popular picture with visitors (Geldzahler 14). This popularity has grown even as Hockney has changed mediums and styles. From the early..."

Abstract
The paper looks at toddlers and focuses on Janet, a very active toddler at all times who never loses interest in exploring her environment. The paper explains that she seems to have a need to know everything. The paper relates how now Janet is at the point where she enjoys scribbling with a crayon and explains that she has sufficient motor skills that most of the time she can feed, dress and toilet herself with minimal assistance. The paper emphasizes that Mary finds she has her hands full at all times and that Janet is someone she constantly has to get to know!
From the Paper
"Mary is a family friend who has a daughter named Janet, aged 14 months. The period between one and two years of age is the toddler. Toddlerhood extends from the time when the child begins walking independently until they can walk and run without effort (Ross-Kerr & Wood, 2001). Janet was already walking at ten months, but another neighbor's child did not start walking until 15 months. Mary realizes that the difference does not mean anything beyond that developmental progression is highly individual."

Abstract
This essay examines the main issues that were involved in the contentious debate over American literary nationalism at the beginning of the 19th century in the United States. The English critic Sidney Smith?s biting comment ?Who reads an American book?? is discussed, in terms of how it continued, and helped perpetuate, the debate about American literary nationalism. Further, this essay outlines how Washington Irving?s tales in "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon" helped to fulfill the need for a unique, American literature that was noted by the Englishman Sidney Smith.
From the Paper
"There were several main issues that fired the contentious debate over American literary nationalism at the beginning of the 19th century, in the United States. The debate surrounded the apparent inability of American authors to produce quality literature. Certainly, America had received its political independence from Britain long before the 19th century, but in terms of art and literature, America had failed to produce works that were equal (of better) in quality to those produced in Great Britain. Certainly, and most importantly, the major point of this debate was that there was no clearly unique style of American literature. Equally important was the perception that the American literature produced was inferior in quality to that produced by British authors (Early). Interestingly, this inability to produce quality literature was reflected in the lacklustre sense of American cultural identity. In Adventures in American Literature: Classic Edition, James Early suggests that a strong sense of American cultural identity needed to be rooted in a ?significant national literature?."

Abstract
This paper explains how Irving used German folktales as a basis to create and embellish his own ideas and characters and turn them into his own. It looks at his stories,?The Legend of Sleepy Hollow?, ?Rip Van Winkle?, and ?The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent? in order to compare these to Dutch and German classics and see in which way he was inspired by these cultures.
From the Paper
"?The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent? established Irving as a respectable author both in the US and in Europe. Published as the charming account of an Englishman?s love for English landscape and counties, the book also reveals his anxiety about being dispossessed of home and security, the surface is famously genial and sentimental (Rubin-Dorsky 32-64). The book itself consists of 34 literary sketches, where four are about America, while the rest draws from Irving?s own experiences and observations in England."
